Whenever your Pokemon buddies are in need of healing, you can always depend on that friendly Pokemon Center nurse. These NPCs always had identical character models in mainline Pokemon RPGs, but Pokemon Legends: Z-A turns these attendants into visually distinct characters.
Pokemon Center nurses in Legends: Z-A all share the same hairstyle, featuring those iconic hair loops that recall the Nurse Joy character from the Pokemon anime series. But in Lumiose City, every attendant has a different appearance, with varying skin tones and facial features.
And these characters have their own identities as well–one side mission even has you battle a Pokemon Center clerk named Bien (which translates to “good” or “well” in French). It’s not revolutionary compared to other changes in Legends: Z-A, but it’s a step towards adding some personality to the series.
This sounds like an interesting change for Nurse Joy in Pokemon Legends Z-A! It’s great to see how the game continues to evolve and keep things fresh for players. Looking forward to experiencing this new twist!
